c'mon Griff   get yer finger out n get on with it,   want to see if it works, got some white tuffs i fancy doing in cammo , athough probs won't be able to find em after   if i do

Neil Arcus  (n2cus) used some funky stuff to paint some tuffs white, can't remember what it was though. Was some proper gear though.

    yeah i remember that.........spray painting white tuffs, wait................white 

EPIC FAIL of the century

[MaD-RoK]

They ended up nice and whitey white with a good white finish expertly applied.

No............they looked shyte and needed shyte loads of work to get them back to un-molested state

Any updates, Or Kappy has some black ones for sale. Not Minty mint. But better than the ones I offered you Griff.

Sort of, only due to me being a bit too impatient I didn't allow one side to dry properly before I turned them over
So now I need to do a little repaint before fitting as a bit of the paint came off

Otherwise the finish looks good, maybe a bit glossier than original black ones but good

So it doesn't really get absorbed into the plastic then?

Think it needs to dry first

I was just going to say the car dashboard paint in halfords would probably do the same job . Then I read the link and it seems its the same stuff .

You can do your whole car in it and if you get bored just peel it off.

Unfortunatly its only availible here in limited colours, In the states its more or less any colour you can think of.
